December Photo-A-Day - Day 21


"Peace"

✔ Presents bought
✔ Gifts wrapped
✔ House cleaned
✔ Laundry done

A peace has filled our little home and I'm happy. I know not every Christmas (or ever again) will all be done by now, but I'm going to relish the peace of today and the next few days. Presents have been organized by household, etc. I don't need to think about laundry until after Christmas. All this done to now remember and have time to remember why we are celebrating Christmas. When we first began to prepare, my bucket list had "getting a larger Nativity scene" on it. Now? I don't think I want to. The little glass Nativity under our tree has been perfect. (And movable for watering said tree.) It's simplistic, carries a memory, and shows the 3 Wise Men giving gifts which is one of my favorite things to do! I encourage you all to find just a moment to pause and reflect on the season. Even if you still have a busy weekend of shopping, wrapping, cleaning, and laundry, pause and remember why we are celebrating the birth of Jesus! 💜
